Marathon Infinity includes two tools for creating your own Marathon adventures. Forge is our very own Map editor and Anvil lets you add your own graphics, sounds and physics. In addition to the tools, Infinity also has an interactive tutorial program that guides you through making your own maps. Use both of these powerful tools to create your "own" Marathon worlds.

Anvil

Anvil is a highly configurable tool that lets you add your own graphics, sounds and physics to any Marathon 2 or Infinity map. By modifing existing physics and shapes, you can make Marathon to your liking. For example, you can make the assault rifle fire rockets, or better yet, you can make Juggernauts your friends (so you can use them to kill those nasty Bobs). Also, now you can embed physics models into each individual map.

With Anvil you can do crazy things like:
